Should work fine. Need to put a 72 front bumper with the lights in it as well. The 72 grill doesn't have them.

The center support bracket (or whatever the proper name is) and, I think, latch mechanism are also different.

Can't it be modified to work? I could swear I saw a thread about that

I did the opposite a long time ago. I forget how it worked out with turn signal/running lamp wiring. It either will reach just fine or I had to swap harnesses. Grille surround/center support/latch for sure
